•
Switch off the equipment during long-
er breaks and for transportation and
wait until the blade is stationary.
•
Clean the equipment after each use,
as described in the "cleaning and
maintenance" chapter.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Have any repair and mainte-
nance work not described in
these instructions carried out
by a specialist workshop. Use
only original Grizzly replacement
parts. Risk of accidents!
Carry out maintenance and clean-
ing work strictly with the engine
switched off and spark plug con-
nectors removed. Risk of injury!
Allow the equipment to cool
before any maintenance and
cleaning work. Elements of the
engine are hot. Risk of burning!
Wear gloves when handling the
blade.
For cleaning and maintenance
work, also observe the Briggs &
Stratton instruction manual sup-
plied.
We recommend contacting an au-
thorised Briggs & Stratton dealer for
maintenance work on the engine.
Cleaning and General Mainte-
nance Work
Tip the Equipment (Service Po-
sition): To clean the underside of
the equipment, tip the equipment
backwards on the upper handle
bar (1) .
1. remove the grass collection box
(
19),if it is installed.
2. set the cut height to the highest posi-
tion (18).
3. loosen the quick release tensioning
levers (20) and fold the top handle
bar (1) towards the equipment (see
"Assembling the Handle Bar").
The Bowden cables (31) must not be
caught when doing this.
Ensure that the quick release
tensioning levers (20) come to a
stop on the side.
When cleaning or servicing the
appliance, ask someone to hold
the tilted appliance.
Risk of injury if the equipment
tilts back.
Do not tilt the equipment sideways
or forwards. Operating fluids could
leak out and the engine could be
damaged.
•
Always keep the equipment clean. To
clean, use a toothbrush or cloth but no
corrosive cleaning agents or solvents.
Do not use water to clean the engine as
it could contaminate the fuel system.
•
After mowing, remove plant remains
that are stuck to the equipment by us-
ing a piece of wood or plastic. Clean
the vent holes, ejection hole and
blade area especially. Do not use hard
or pointed objects, which could dam-
age the equipment.
•
Oil the wheels from time to time.
•
Before each use, check the lawnmow-
er for obvious defects such as loose,
worn or damaged parts. Check that
all nuts bolts and screws are sitting
firmly.
•
Check covers and guards for damage
